Former President Muhammadu Buhari has lamented about the uncontrolled population growth in the country, saying the situation has become a matter for concern.

The immediate past President however said in spite of the situation in the country, he is pleased that more Nigerians have taken to the farm to grow more food so as to bring down the prices of food in the country.

Speaking to journalists shortly after ing the Emir of Daura, Dr Faruk Umar Faruk, to observe the Eid prayer at the township Eid ground on Sunday, the former president said there was “need for greater discussion and awareness about this problem, (uncontrolled population growth) as well as a need to invest more in education and health.”

The President who wished all Nigerians a Happy Sallah, also prayed that this special festival of Eid-el-Kabir will bring joy, prosperity and wonderful health to everyone.

Buhari also used the occasion to make an appeal to all citizens to make Nigeria Self-reliant. “Let us grow our own food. We have shown that we can do it. This is not the time to relent when we see prices going up. Let us buy what is produced in the country.

“The foundation of a prosperous and stable country has been laid by successive governments, and I encourage our youth, in particular, to continue to play an active role in various nation-building efforts.”

The former President also charged the youth of the country to seek the knowledge about “the founding fathers of the nation, the important personalities of their regions, and derive inspiration from them.”

Reflecting on the crowds at the Eid in Daura, the former President further expressed concern at unchecked population expansion, saying that “it will bring a lot of problems to future generations.

There is a need for greater discussion and awareness about this problem, as well as a need to invest more in education and health.”

He also noted that, “considering the situation in the country, and in the spirit of the Sallah, let us help one another and be our brothers’s keepers. I wish everyone a happy Sallah.”

Also addressing of the National Youth Service, NYSC who have maintained a tradition of paying homage to him every Sallah, the former president said “the scheme continues to be a strong fabric holding the country together and urged successive istrations to continue to strengthen it.”

You are right. The farmers that have been chased out of their farms by bandits are not Nigerians. The bandits have deported them. You must show your Nigerian port to bandits before you can farm.

Wicked man...

It would have been okay if all Nigerians go into large scale mechanized farming. But that's not the plan of these useless leaders. Their actual plan was to turn everybody to peasant farmers by fire by force.

God bless Buhari, other countries have their citizens moving towards 5th industrial revolution with automated technology for agricultural, food harvest and processing, while Buhari has people moving towards 5th century of penury, manual agricultural, roaming herdsmen and farmers vs herdsmen clash that was last heard of between Cain and Abel 4000 BC

Farms that have been taken over by bandits and terrorists.
Old man fooling himself

Imagine Buhari talking about explosive population. I thought Muslim northerners never talk about population growth as their philosophy is that "children belong to God". Looks like their eyes are beginning to open, as over-the-sky food inflation is showing the country "shege".

Crypto farm or crop farm?
This man is funny.

As usual he is still far from reality

This baba is delusional as always

The ones already in the farm are being killed and disturbed by bandits and you think others will be encouraged to ?

How many Nigerians have gone back to the farm?

They have gone back to the farm yet the country is facing famine

Nlfpmod, Buhari remains uninformed till life. When herdsmen don't even allow farmers to go farm under APC led istration.

This incompetent disaster of a former president is never aware of the happenings around him.

Even when he was the preside t he was never aware of happenings, now after presidency, he is still not aware of the happenings in the country.

The fact that the so called sophisticated people voted this dunce as a president speaks volume.

Thunder ⚡⚡⚡ Fire 🔥🔥🔥 you !!!
Farm wey your Fulani Brothers dey Destroy, kill farmer, kidnappe,and Rape female farms plus Taxing farmers in the North na em dey make you happy ?

The immediate past President however said in spite of the situation in the country, he is pleased that more Nigerians have taken to the farm to grow more food so as to bring down the prices of food in the country.

Is this man even aware that prices of foodstuffs have skyrocketed?

So all this is for Nigerians to be farmers

This guy must not be allowed to dié naturally
